MeSH Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a common complication of allogeneic bone marrow transplantation in which functional immune cells in the transplanted marrow recognize the recipient as "foreign" and mount an immunologic attack. It can also take place in a blood transfusion under certain circumstances. Contents Causes Types Clinical manifestation Transfusion-associated GVHD ... edit Causes According to the 1966 Billingham Criteria , 3 criteria must be met in order for GVHD to occur. Administration of an immunocompetent graft, with viable and functional immune cells. The recipient is immunologically disparate - histoincompatible. The recipient is immunocompromised and therefore cannot destroy or inactivate the transplanted cells. After bone marrow transplantation, T cells present in the graft , either as contaminants or intentionally introduced into the host, attack the tissues of the transplant recipient after perceiving host tissues as antigenically foreign. The T cells produce an excess of

Contact Us Search MedlinePlus Health Topics ESPAÑOL Graft-versus-host disease Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a complication that can occur after a stem cell or bone marrow transplant in which the newly transplanted material attacks the transplant recipient's body. See also: Transplant rejection Causes GVHD occurs in a bone marrow or stem cell transplant involving a donor and a recipient. The bone marrow is the soft tissue inside bones that helps form blood cells, including white cells that are responsible for the immune response . Stem cells are normall found inside bone marrow. Since only identical twins have identical tissue types, a donor's bone marrow is normally a close, but not perfect, match to the recipient's tissues. See: Histocompatibility antigen test The differences between the donor's cells and recipient's tissues often cause T cells (a type of white blood cells) from the donor to recognize the recipient's body tissues as foreign. When this happens, the newly transplanted cells attack the transplant recipient's body. Acute GVHD usually happens within the first 3 months after transplant.

GVHD tends to be more severe in patients receiving mismatched transplants from family member or unrelated donors. GVHD is two diseases: acute GVHD and chronic GVHD. "Patients may develop one, both or neither. Acute and chronic GVHD differ in their symptoms, clinical signs and time of onset." Acute GVHD usually occurs during the first three months following an allogeneic BMT. "T-cells present in the donor's bone marrow at the time of transplant identify the BMT patient as "non-self' and attack the patient's skin, liver, stomach, and/or intestines. The earliest sign of acute GVHD is often a skin rash that usually first appears on the patient's hands and feet." medicalistes.org

This is a complication, which happens when the new stem cells from the donor attack other cells in the body of the transplant recipient. Recently, an antibody (protein) called alemtuzumab or Campath has been found to be effective in the prevention of Graft vs. Host Disease. Previous studies have shown a low risk of GVHD with alemtuzumab, however the risk of disease recurrence was high. Previous studies have used a high dose of alemtuzumab. The purpose of this study is:

Technology Graft-vs.-Host Disease Oncology Encyclopedia: Graft-vs.-Host Disease Home Library Health Oncology Encyclopedia Key Terms: Anemia Immunoglobulin Immunosuppressive Lesion Description Graft-vs.-host disease is a response by the immune system that occurs when cells from a blood or bone marrow donor attack those of the recipient. The only transplanted tissues that contain enough immune cells to cause graft-vs.-host disease are the blood and the bone marrow. Blood transfusions are used every day in hospitals for many reasons. Bone marrow transplants are used to replace blood-forming cells and immune cells in cancer patients whose own bone marrow has been destroyed by radiation therapy or chemotherapy Blood transfusion graft-vs.-host disease affects mostly the blood. Blood cells perform three functions: carrying oxygen, fighting infections, and clotting . All of these functions are decreased in a transfusion graft-vs.-host reaction, leading to anemia (lack of red blood cells in the blood), reduced resistance to infections, and increased bleeding. The reaction occurs 4–30 days after the transfusion.

Hyperacute rejection immediately after transplantation is rare since intensive screening of donor-recipient compatibility has become common. Acute rejection is caused by recipient white blood cells invading graft tissue, and can occur in the first year after transplant. Immunosuppressive drugs suppress this process. Chronic rejection can occur years after transplant, and is a result of blood vessel blockage caused by excessive tissue repair processes in the graft. author: VanBuskirk, Anne M., Pidwell, Diane J., Adams, Patrick W., Orosz, Charles G.

skip to main skip to sidebar Tuesday, September 14, 2010 Super Bad Headaches from Lumbar Puncture I rushed David to emergency on Monday because he obviously was having a lot of head pain. We were actually going to LCPH to get admitted to the BMT unit. But 10 minutes from the hospital he started to throw up blood! I freaked out. I forgot about all the WAS mom's out there whose son's often get nose bleeds and end up vomiting blood. We drove to emergency instead. He perked up, had a CT scan, and got admitted to the BMT unit. Nothing again on the CT scan. Just limited CSF (cerebral spinal fluid) and two constricted vessels. They think his spinal fluid has not equalized yet after the Lumbar Puncture. OR...which we hope not...he has a spinal fluid leak and needs it patched. We are supposed to go to Italy. We are hanging on the edge of our seats and getting on our knees wondering what God has in store. He is doing better with a small, constant dose of morphine. He's never had morphine so now I cannot say that anymore :-( Voriconozole (anti-fungal) lead to....the increased spinal fluid which lead to....the lumbar puncture which lead to....the very painful spinal headache. Urg! It's days like this where I dislike medicine, tests, and interventions.
